Wolfgang und Heidi Lucky you. Our last pet (a cat) past away a couple of month. We really want to have a dog as well. But we can’t because our plans for future travel‘ are too heavy to leave a pet back home. And anyway we have plans to sell our lovely country home altogether and go for renting holiday homes all over the places instead.
